TopicAgnosticism is a cop out, "agnosticism" doesn't exist

If you are simply rejecting the claim that a god exists 100% i get that, and agree. Yes that makes you atheist.
If you are rejecting the claim that gods have a chance to exist, then you are also atheist.

The difference is Agnostic Atheist (one that doesn't believe gods exist but doesn't outright dismiss them as a impossible occurrence)

VERSUS

Gnostic Atheist (one that doesn't believe gods exist and is 100% sure that is the case for whatever reason.)

Atheism is that you firmly believe there is no god(s)

As an atheist, this is not what I believe.

You probably aren't an atheist then, by definition that is what an atheist is.

atheism
noun
disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods.


Going back to my original statement which is where I erred the mistake was I didn't clarify that I was talking about agnostic vs gnostic atheists. I put agnostic in it's own category, which strictly speaking it is not. The chart I posted sums up what I was meaning to get a across but I clearly didn't do a good job doing so.
